History Funny / NarutoGaiden

* Chocho has something important to tell Sarada,but it must be their secret. Turns out, she's having doubts she's really Choji and Karui's daughter, since she's nothing like them. Cue "what the?!?" looks form Sarada, Choji and Karui -apparently, the conversation was not so private.

** Shikamaru is exasperated with Sasuke's insistence on using pen, paper and a messenger bird to communicate with them, calling Sasuke old-fashioned. Naruto has to remind him Sasuke doesn't have easy access to electricity when travelling through unpopulated areas and can't be expected to have access to the latest tech.[[note]]The top-most speech bubble is ambiguous, but the bottom one clearly points to Naruto. Plus, in Japanese, Naruto and Shikamaru have distinct speech patterns, so it's obvious the "old-fashioned" line came from the latter.[[/note]]

* Yamato gets really embarrassed when the [[BadassInCharge Hokage]] adressess him as "captain".

*** The girly way he pronounces [[JapanesePronouns "watashi"]] (the gender-neutral personal pronoun[[note]]he makes it sound like "atashi" in the anime, which is a female personal pronoun[[/note]]) probably doesn't help matters.

* A Shin Jr. tries to impale Naruto, who easily catches and destroys his weapon with his initial jinchūriki form. The Shin Jr. gets into a stating contest with Naruto, and becomes increasingly terrified by Naruto's RedEyesTakeWarning and HellishPupils. ''Then'' he sees into Naruto's mental world with his Mangekyo Sharingan and finds himself on the receiving end of a DeathGlare from [[AnimalisticAbomination Kurama]]. The Shin Jr. nearly wets himself and completely loses the will to fight.

* Sasuke has no qualms about punching the humongous Shin Jr clone in the face using Susano'o. Not the mostly classy thing he's done...

* Orochimaru now looks even younger than Tsunade. And [[DudeLooksLikeALady very femminine]] too boot. So much so, in fact, that Chocho can't even determine if he's [[AmbiguousGender really a man or a woman]].

* Chapter 1:
** Choji enthousiastically greets Chocho and Sarada while holding a bag of chips, much to Chocho's embarassment. Sarada points out that it's not ''that'' unusual for an adult to walk around with a snack in his hand, but Chocho is still angry. After all, he's holding [[BaitAndSwitch a bag of lightly salted chips, a flavor she detests]].

** During their sparring match, Boruto tricks Naruto with a Shadow Clone. Naruto gets annoyed he fell for it and is about to create a ton of clones for payback until Sai remarks how childish his behavior is.
** Sai and Inojin are training too, with the kid drawing and animating a beast that looks like a cross between a bunny and a lion using Sai's jutsu, while thinking that his dad's art taste (classic lion) is ancient.

* Chapter 2:
** Sasuke's face and sigh when Shin is about to attack him, before [[CurbStompBattle bitchslapping him with ease]].
** Chocho has something important to tell Sarada,but it must be their secret. Turns out, she's having doubts she's really Choji and Karui's daughter, since she's nothing like them. Cue "what the?!?" looks form Sarada, Choji and Karui -apparently, the conversation was not so private.

*** Then, Mitsuki appears out of the blue and tells her that a ChangelingFantasy is a common occurrence in girls their age who are insecure about their self-worth. After a snark-filled speech, he introduces himself and goes on to say that he doesn't need to see Chocho's family crest to know she's from the Akimichi clan. That last bit may or may not be a StealthInsult.

*** Now, let's take a moment to appreciate this: lazy, cloud-envying Shikamaru, who has had the attitude of an old man since he was a kid, is calling someone "old-fashioned".
** Kakashi is taking a vacation in a bath-house, wearing a robe with a shuriken pattern over his usual shirt-and-mask. When Naruto calls, he's less than happy to hear from him:

** Sarada decides to secretly follow Naruto to meet her father. What could possibly go wrong when tailing a powerful sensory type[[note]]in Sage mode and Nine Tails Chakra mode[[/note]] ninja? Well, first off, Chocho is going to tag along to look for her "real" parents. Sarada, too polite to say anything or pull a {{Facepalm}}, adjusts her glasses in exasperation.
* Chapter 3:
** In her hurry to follow Naruto, Sarada accidentally trips Chocho on a tree branch. Her reaction is priceless:

** Mitsuki, noticing that Boruto and Sarada need to talk alone, drags Chocho away to give them some privacy. Unfortunately for him, Chocho gets the wrong impression:

** Naruto realizes that whoever it is that's been tailing him since before he left the village is not going to give up. Exasperated, he decides to turn back to meet them rather than wait for them to catch up. How Sarada thought she could follow him and remain unnoticed is anyone's guess.
** Chocho gets exhausted after their fast paced run and can't keep going any more.

* Chapter 4:
** Chocho is so impressed with how utterly badass Naruto is, she flat out asks him if ''he's'' her real dad. Naruto just.. [[FlatWhat can't]]... wrap his head around what she says and leaves it at that, taking the first chance he gets to change the subject.

** Naruto describes Sasuke to Sarada, but he's glossing over some of the details. According to [[UnreliableNarrator Naruto]], back in the academy Sasuke was popular with all the girls, good-looking, cool and, most importantly, top of the class, [[BlatantLies just like him]]. After the last bit, [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Chocho]] starts questioning the validity of the narration --not because she has any reason to doubt Naruto was any of those things, but because there can't be two top-of-the-class students. She probably doubts ''Sasuke'' was as awesome as Naruto.

* Chapter 5:
** When Sarada shows Sasuke the photograph of Team Taka, Naruto has this "who the hell are those guys?" expression on his face.
** Chocho [[DelayedReaction realizes who Sasuke is]] '''''after''''' Sarada spent a good time [[CallingTheOldManOut venting her anger on him]], demanding answers.

** Naruto has this completely flat, "you again..." look as the hooded man is about to attack him and Sarada. Then, he casually gets up on his feet and goes straight in Six Paths Sage Mode.
* Chapter 6:
** A bit of BlackHumor can be found in the completely blank expression Naruto has after he's stabbed with Sasuke's sword. The fact that he has a blade through his gut just doesn't register with the guy at first.

** While everyone's out fighting Shin Jr and Shin Sr, Chocho's inside the tower [[PassThePopcorn eating a bag of chips]], oblivious to the action.
** Sakura's DynamicEntry into the battle: she ''literally'' [[MegatonPunch pounded]] Shin Sr into the ground; he couldn't even move after that punch. And '''''then''''' she turns around and asks who these guys are.
*** Naruto's and Sasuke's faces after that are a mix of: "where did ''she'' come from?" and "that was totally [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill overkill]]".

* Chapter 7:
** Chocho once agains offers Sasuke a bag of chips so that he, in turn, can give them to Sarada as a peace offering. Unfortunately, now there's only the salt flavor left. Wonder [[BigEater what happened]] to the other ones...
** Yamato gets really embarrassed when the [[BadassInCharge Hokage]] adressess him as "captain".
*** He then says that infiltrating Orochimaru's hideout won't be as hard as last time, since Sasuke is on their side this time. The way Sasuke hesitates a bit before admitting he knows the place inside-out really makes this exchange gold. Everyone is trying so hard to skirt around the fact that Sasuke once was a Rogue Ninja.
** Naruto is concerned they're just walking into the hideout; after all, ''this'' is [[MadScientistLaboratory the base of a deranged scientist]], not the LocalHangout. Before they get too far, they're intercepted by Jugo and Suigetsu, with the latter lampshading their folly.

** Orochimaru now looks even younger than Tsunade. And [[DudeLooksLikeALady very femminine]] too boot. So much so, in fact, that Chocho can't even determine if he's [[AmbiguousGender really a man or a woman]].

** The way Orochimaru [[AffablyEvil acts]] like two old friends have come to visit him after a long time is hilarious. You can't help but wonder if that's how he really feels or if he's just going with the flow so that the two [[WorldsStrongestMan most powerful men]] who ever lived won't destroy his base -and him.
* Chapter 8:
** Naruto grabbing Sarada's arm to stop her from leaving the village is very heartwarming, but also a bit funny: some part of him is probably thinking "Oh, no! I'm not going through ''that'' again."
** Sarada asking Sakura in the flashback if she's ever kissed Sasuke. Sakura blushes, hesitates, then thinks about it a bit and starts laughing.

*** Sarada then asks what's better than a kiss; Sakura responds by giving her a forehead poke.
** For a bit of BlackHumor: Naruto and Sarada meet up with the others, who have apparently been waiting for them for some time. When Sasuke yells at them for being late, Naruto immediately yells right back that when this is over the two of them are going to have a "talk". Sasuke -[[LockedOutOfTheLoop understandably]]- doesn't get the jab.

* Chapter 9:
** Sarada and Chouchou's reaction to the many Shin Jr. clones:

** Sasuke has no qualms about punching the humongous Shin Jr clone in the face using Susano'o. Not the mostly classy thing he's done...
* Chapter 10
** A Shin Jr. tries to impale Naruto, who easily catches and destroys his weapon with his initial jinchūriki form. The Shin Jr. gets into a stating contest with Naruto, and becomes increasingly terrified by Naruto's RedEyesTakeWarning and HellishPupils. ''Then'' he sees into Naruto's mental world with his Mangekyo Sharingan and finds himself on the receiving end of a DeathGlare from [[AnimalisticAbomination Kurama]]. The Shin Jr. nearly wets himself and completely loses the will to fight.
** In the end, Chocho does manage to find her "real" dad: A slim, chiseled Choji. She immediately asks him to teach her the Calorie Control jutsu; Sarada just laughs. It's topped off with Naruto telling Choji that Chocho has been looking all over for him.
** When Ino starts walking up to Sasuke to greet him, Sarada jealously blocks her path. Given the emotional gauntlet Sarada been through, who could blame her?
** The giant Shin Jr has to wait outside while his brothers are inside the orphanage. He also has a mark on his face where Sasuke punched him using Susano'o.
** Sasuke leaves once again and Sakura leans forward so he can give her a forehead poke, too. Sasuke, who has just shown his warm and caring side while saying goodbye to Sarada, looks at his wife for a moment and quickly turns around. He's too embarrassed to say goodbye properly! You half-expect him to start [[LuminescentBlush blushing]] when Sakura looks at him expectantly.
*** Sakura hanging her head in dissappointment, Sarada enthusiastically waving goodbye and Sasuke's little grin as he walks away make the scene both hilarious and heartwarming.

** A subtle BrickJoke, but the Uchihas are shown living in an apartment now, since Sakura destroyed their house back in Chapter 1.

** Naruto has a completely flat, "you again?" look as the hooded man is about to attack him and Sarada. Then, he casually gets up on his feet and goes straight in Six Paths Sage Mode.

** Naruto's completely flat look as the hooded man is about to attack them. Then, he casually gets up on his feet and goes straight in Six Paths Sage Mode.

*** It gets even better when you realize that he really ''couldn't'' give her a forehead poke. To do that, he'd have to place down the the lunchbox Sakura had just given him. So, to save face, he pretends to be all cool and aloof but that little smile just gives him away.

** Shikamaru[[note]]The top-most speech bubble is ambiguous, but the bottom one clearly points to Naruto. Plus, in Japanese, Naruto and Shikamaru have distinct speech patterns, so it's obvious the "old-fashioned" line came from the latter[[/note]] is exasperated with Sasuke's insistence on using pen, paper and a messenger bird to communicate with them, calling Sasuke old-fashioned. Naruto has to remind him Sasuke doesn't have easy access to electricity when travelling through unpopulated areas and can't be expected to have access to the latest tech.

** Naruto looks exasperated with Sasuke's insistence on using pen, paper and a messenger bird to communicate with them. Shikamaru has to remind him Sasuke doesn't have easy access to electricity when travelling through unpopulated areas and can't be expected to keep his phone charged.

*** Suigetsu acting all ignorant by saying then Naruto and Sarada must have gotten lost inside the base, as if he didn't accidentally unleash hell with his actions.
*** When Naruto asks about Sasuke's eye powers weakening, Sasuke starts explaining before pausing and remarking that Naruto has no right to try to lecture him. After all, ''Naruto'' is the one at fault here, since his eagerness to start a fight serves no purpose besides upsetting the kids. Naruto, who spent all that time trying to calm Sarada, is incensed by this.
---->'''Naruto:''' "NO WAY! I DON'T WANT TO BE TOLD THAT BY YOU! NOT ABOUT UPSETTING THE KIDS!"

** The giant Shin Jr has to wait outside while his brothers are inside the orphanage.
*** He also has a mark on his face when Sasuke punched him using Susano'o.

** Naruto describes Sasuke to Sarada, but he's glossing over some of the details. According to [[UnreliableNarrator Naruto]], back in the academy Sasuke was popular with all the girls, good-looking, cool and, most importantly, top of the class, [[BlatantLies just like him]].

She probably doubts ''Sasuke'' was as awesome as Naruto.

** A Shin Jr. tries to impale Naruto, who easily catches and destroys his weapon with Version 1. The Shin Jr. gets into a stating contest with Naruto, and becomes increasingly terrified by Naruto's RedEyesTakeWarning and HellishPupils. ''Then'' he sees into Naruto's mental world with his Mangekyo Sharingan and finds himself on the receiving end of a DeathGlare from [[AnimalisticAbomination Kurama]]. The Shin Jr. nearly wets himself and completely loses the will to fight.
